He eventually made his home in Union City, CA with his wife and two daughters. He spent the majority of his career as a maintenance machinist at Baxter Biotech in Hayward, CA.

One of his greatest passions was classic cars. David and Kimberly belonged to several local car clubs throughout the years. They were currently members of the Golden Gate Goats and Nor-Cal Chevelle Caminos Car Clubs. One of his favorite things to do was to participate and go to car shows on the weekend with Kimberly.

As an animal lover, David had a soft spot for rescuing animals. He enjoyed his time with his kitties and his chocolate Labrador, Allie whom he would take with him everywhere.

David was an active member in the community, he went out of his way to be there for his family, friends and neighbors. He will be greatly missed by all those who knew and loved him, and will live on in our hearts.
